How old are you. Did you ever do the SS NLP which includes the press (not listed in your post)? If so, when did you do it?
I’m 5’7.5” 181 lbs, currently trying to gain as fast as I can with gomad. My current 5 rep maxes are:
Squat - 315
Bench - 225 (for only 3 reps unfortunately)
Deadlift - 375
Row - 225
Incline Bench Press - 190
I’ve been on Bill Starr’s 5x5 (Madcow) for the past couple months. I like the routine, but just not sure if I’m cheating myself out of faster progression by switching to an intermediate routine too soon.
Also, I work a very demanding job (UPS driver). I work nearly 12 hours a day, and I walk nearly 20,000 steps a day. Which in turn makes keeping weight on extremely difficult, but I’m still trying, and determined. Not to mention, I’m totally spent by the time I get to the gym, but I hang out my workouts anyway.

Sounds like you should actually do the program proper and take it from there.
